Rules.

Dan and Poopy

Dan called me from the laundromat and asked if I wanted to skate around while he waited on his clothes. Poopy showed up, we did some wallrides, and shot the shit. Poopy mentioned how it was funny how adults wave at us now instead of giving us dirty looks for skateboarding. I told him it was probably because they think it's cute that grown men are still standing around in the alley trying tricks. God bless skateboarding. Or not.

Ted Nugent

I've been working with this sketchy ex-con dude for the past few weeks. The first day he started working my uncle (and boss) , Clark, called him "Ted Nugent" in passing and the name has stuck. The other day we were mentioning how we had no clue what his real name was anymore. He started to tell us, and I cut in and said- "it doesn't matter now, you'll always be The Nuge unless one of us comes up with something better."

It was a pretty uneventful weekend around here. The rain put a damper on my usual Sunday shralp-a-thon. Sometime this week I'm supposed to go shred with Dan "D" Bayha, and I'll share the photos if that goes down.

If blogs are really pumping your nads- go to http://filmporvida.blogspot.com/ and check out some pics I have on there and all the other cool stuff he has up. If it wasn't for seeing his (Jai Tanju) blog I wouldn't have this one right now.

On a non-computer nerd note- work has begun on Shark Bait #34 since the weather is allowing us to go outside and live finally.

I took a shitload of slams today too. At the park I was trying a trick I've always wanted to do. It's nothing worth mentioning, and I felt like a total jock trying it over and over. I finally landed it and wasn't happy so I had to do it again. That came with a whole new batch of slams and my shoulder started to feel pretty creepy. Then I finally did it again and feel like I sort of accomplished something today, which is always good. This happened at the wallride spot and fucked up my shoulder even more and I was officially over it for the day.

If you didn't know- American Hardcore is out on dvd now. I'm going to go watch it now.

It was cool to skate with the Stillwater fools twice in one week.

Georgie is insane.

This evening we went to skate the wallride at the ghetto apartments (forty north) in Stillwater. George started trying this nutso gap out of nowhere. The part where you would start your ollie was slanted downhill, which is just retarded and akward. He's the only dude I know who would fuck with something like this. The thought of just ollieing it never crossed his mind, he went straight into committing 100% to heelflips. Unfortunately it didn't get pulled, but these were some of the gnarliest slams I've seen in a long time. Get spracked.
